Question

1. Molecules of solids can just
about their mcan positions,​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The constituent particles occupy fixed positions and can only oscillate about their mean position. Because of these properties, the solid posseses the following characteristic properties.

Answer 2

Answer:

Matter in the solid state maintains a fixed volume and shape, with component particles (atoms, molecules or ions) close together and fixed into place.In solid state, molecules are compact and they move /vibrate about their mean position, So the inter-particle space is minimum consequently their inter-particle force of attraction is maximum.

Examples are apple, pen, pillow are said to be in solid state.
